Raising a child is very difficult. This is a difficult process that requires a competent approach. You can often hear phrases like this: “What a naughty child you are! We must take up your education! “. Although they don’t even understand that the task is impossible.
Why? Because raising a child must begin with his birth, but not to begin trying to do it when there are already the fruits of the absence of the lack of upbringing. It is known that character traits, personal qualities are formed till five years. It depends only on the family, what kind of person the child will grow up. Parents are always faced with the task of investing in their baby kindness, politeness, the desire to help those in need, obedience and many other positive qualities.
How to do it correctly? In fact, there is simply no one recipe for all parents. It all depends on the individual characteristics of the baby and his dad and mom. However, there are a number of basic rules that must be followed every day. It is also important to reconsider the communication within the family. If dad and mom do not respect each other and do wrong and immoral things, then the baby will perceive such behavior as the norm, therefore, he will grow up to be the same kind of person as his parents. Moreover, it will be simply impossible to re-educate him in this case.
Rules for communicating with a child
1. It is important to remain calm.
Even if a mother is a very emotional and quick-tempered person, in the presence of her child she should try to be calm and she mustn’t shout at her child. Perhaps this rule is the most important. And it doesn’t matter what age the child is. When the baby is in infancy, he can flinch from sharp screams and cry from fright. When he is five years old, he can perceive them with protest – this largely depends on his individual characteristics of character. In this case, the baby will either start screaming and crying too, or get offended. The consequences of such treatment of a child will not be long in coming: after a short time, he will become very irritable, disobedient. Indeed, he models the behavior of the parents, which means that he behaves in the same way as they do. It will also negatively affect his nervous system.
2. Set a good example.
As mentioned above, children model the behavior of adults. Parents are a role model for them. Who better than them can show how to behave correctly in this world? Babies, like monkeys, copy the behavior of adults in everything. In education, you need to be cunning. Why not take advantage of this cute childhood role model and show good examples on a regular basis? For example, buy a kit for embroidery with beads, attributes for drawing, sewing and show your daughter or son how interesting it is to spend time doing such an activity.
Unfortunately, adults do not always show good examples. You can often hear bad words from children. Toddlers copy adults all the time, so it is important to behave (at least with a baby) in such a way as you want your child to behave in future.
3. Keep to the unity of requirements.
It is important that all adults who surround the child are equally strict and affectionate with him. In no case should it be allowed that, for example, dad forbade the baby to watch TV, and mom, on the contrary, encouraged it. In no case should you say: “It is impossible, because your Dad forbids it.” It is important to explain the reason to the baby. Otherwise, he will perceive a person who constantly forbids him everything as an enemy.
It is imperative that these rules become a habit. The main thing is to love your baby and to approach his upbringing wisely.
